Why You Should Use A Tanning Lotion

by Tanning Fanatic on June 26, 2009 341 views |

Tanning Lotions
If you’ve ever been in any tanning salon, not just an Extreme Tan And Smoothies, but any one, you probably saw their display of tanning lotions. I’ve heard more than a few novice tanners wonder out loud what the point of a lotion was why did they need t spend their money on it? Well, it’s not just a plan for the tanning salons to make more money, the lotions actual help you tan and nourish your skin, so using a tanning lotion is a very good idea.

There’s so many tanning lotions that it can be overwhelming when you walk into your salon. There’s different kind of lotions, dozens of brands and much more to choose from.

The first place to start is by choosing a type of lotion. The three main kinds of lotions are bronzers, tingle lotions and standard lotions that don’t have either. Of course, there’s even lotions that are a combination of both bronzers and tinglers.

Bozner lotions are the most popular on the market right now, because they help tanners get the deepest, darkest tan as quick as possible. They have ingredients that help your skin become noticeably darker in as few as two or three visits to the salon.

Most tanning lotions also have additional ingredients in their formulas to keep your skin moisturized and to protect it. These ingredients are often what will set one lotion apart from another. There’s hemp seed oil, anti-aging blends and skin firming compounds to name just a few. Some lotions have become so advanced that their prices can reach close to a hundred dollars.

Whether you want to pay that much or less is entirely up to you, but one thing is certain, if you go into a tanning bed and don’t apply tanning lotion, your skin has a greater chance of getting burnt, getting an uneven tan and even increasing the chance of skin damage.

It’s completely understandable to be overwhelmed and unsure about tanning lotions, but talk to the associates working there, they have training on lotions and are generally experts when it comes to picking out the right kinds of lotions.

Tanning Lotion Types – Tingle

by Tanning Fanatic on May 28, 2009 156 views |

Trinity Roar

There’s three different kinds of tanning lotions – bronzers, accelerators and tingle lotions. Today, I’m going over the tingle lotions. In the next few posts, I’ll be going over the others.

Tingle lotions were named after the tingling sensation that you feel on your skin after you apply the lotion. The tingling brings blood to the surface of your skin which in turn brings oxygen to the surface to affect the melanin in your skin. The more that the melanin is affected, the darker the tan.

For most people, your skin will be red, like you have a sunburn for about an hour after tanning. However, the red will g away unless you’re a person, like me, who has sensitive skin. It’s a good idea to test it out n a small section of your skin to see the results before applying it all over your body.

A couple of the tanning lotions with tingle that you can find at Extreme Tan And Smoothies is Trinity Roar or OC’s Out Of Control.

Colors Of Unity Tanning Lotion Review

by Tanning Fanatic on May 13, 2009 195 views |

Colors Of Unity Tanning Lotion

Colors Of Unity is constantly one of the most popular tanning lotions month after month at Extreme Tan And Smoothies. Colors Of Unity is a Super dark tan lotion with a tinted shimmering blend and with it’s low price, it’s not hard to figure out why it’s so popular.

I’d give this lotion a six out of a ten, a lot of people like this lotion, but I don’t think it was the lotion for me.

I did look a little darker after I was done tanning, but I’ve had better results with other lotions. It also seemed a little on the greasy side to me. The fragrance was really here nor there for me. I guess overall, it was a nice lotion, but it was nothing that I’d really get excited about.

Here’s the need to know information about Colors Of Unity:

  • Instant results with Vila – Bronze – supercharges your skin with essential vitamins and oils for an amazing dark tan.
  • Cranberry Seed Oil – one of the few oils with a one to one ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 fatty acids, Wonderfully Moisturizing.
  • Tanning Catalyst – bio activating proteins for melanin synthesis to provide an extra boost to the tanning process.
  • Tinted Shimmer – instantly provides a healthy, radiant glow.
  • Matrixyl – targeted anti-aging complex that reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
  • ATO Eliminator – neutralizes Maldor Molecules, helps preventing after tan odors.

Try it for yourself and tell me what you think. Have you already tried it? I’d love to hear what you think also.

Posh Couture Tanning Lotion Review

by Tanning Fanatic on May 11, 2009 764 views |

Posh Couture

One of the most popular tanning lotions at Extreme Tan And Smoothies right now is Posh Couture by Devoted Creations. Posh Couture is a tanning lotion with 30x silicone bronzer and tanning stimulator from Devoted Creations.

  • Contains acai oil – a powerful fruit oil loaded with antioxidants
  • Tanning simulators – enhances tanning experience with an immediate skin sensation
  • Silicone emulsion – provides a soft, velvet feel to the skin that lasts the entire day
  • Matrixyl – targeted anti-aging complex that reduces the appearance of wrinkles

It sounded pretty good, so last week I decided to test it out. I’ve heard nothing but positive things about it from fellow tanners and employees at the salons, but I’m not a fan of this lotion.

It seemed to greasy going on and I really didn’t like the aftersmell. I really couldn’t wait until I could jump into the shower and wash it off.

But thats just my opinion, if you’re thinking about this one, still try it out.
